Yet for disabled, elderly, low-income individuals, or those without a smartphone or credit card, these services are practically out of reach. Such services tend to gather in wealthy urban areas, leaving users largely young, wealthy, and able-bodied. Shared mobility could be a key part of a more sustainable transportation system. But to be most effective, it needs to include everyone. For-profit shared mobility providers have largely failed to deliver on this, but various initiatives and projects are finding creative solutions to reach under-served communities. ●Buffalo’s E-Bike Library: Organizes training, group rides and educational events to familiarize people with cycling culture and safety, with 71% of members being first-time riders. ●Mobitwin’s car-share service: Prioritizes email-and phone-based bookings over apps to extend reach to a wider share of the population lacking digital literacy, helping them access the service more easily. ● U. S. bike-sharing policy: Provides fare reductions for low-income groups, with cash payment options and non-smartphone access as key measures to broaden adoption, which has shown promise in increasing the use of shared bikes while decreasing the use of personal vehicles. ●Graz’s car-share initiatives: Add wheelchair-accessible vehicles, child seats, and station-based booking to suit diverse users’ trip-chaining needs, such as mid-route pickups and multi-destination trips. The future of shared mobility relies on making inclusive design a top priority. As Esen Köse, project manager at Mpact, puts it, “It’s about starting with people’s needs.” 21. What is the percentage gap between lower and higher income users in Barrier 1? A. 3%. B. 16%. C. 26%. D. 71%. 22. Which solution targets Barrier 2? A. Buffalo’s E-Bike Library. B. Graz’s car-share initiatives. C. U. S. bike-sharing policy. D. Mobitwin’s car-share service. 23. What will shape the future of shared mobility according to Esen Köse? A. Tech-based priority. B. Charity-run initiatives. C. Profit-driven providers. D. User-centered accessibility. B We thought we had everything we could ask for—a lovely home, three healthy kids, two vehicles—and we cherished it all. We spent money as if it would never run out. But then the market took a downturn, and my husband lost his job at the construction firm. The company filed for failure and shut its doors permanently. We both began searching for jobs immediately, yet there were none available. As each day went by, our anxiety grew, but we kept working as a team to get our family through the tough time. The more we joined forces, the stronger our bond became. Watching my husband take the blame for our current dilemma was truly painful. I knew full well he couldn’t control the economy, but he kept putting himself down—each bitter word he said dragged his spirits further down. I kept telling him to quit it, yet he appeared determined to punish himself for being jobless. At last, one afternoon I pulled him aside and said, “We have healthy children and each other. That’s what matters. That makes you a rich man.” “But what if we lose the house? They’ll hate me—you'll hate me,” he replied. “If we live in a cardboard box on the empty lot across the street, I will be happy—as long as I have you.” I wasn’t just saying it. I meant business. I could see the sense of relief spread over him as his shoulders and neck loosened, and the tightness drained from his body. He pulled me close, and for the first time in a long while, we were able to talk, make plans, and share dreams together. It marked a pivotal moment for both of us as a couple and our family. We are still struggling financially, but I count us fortunate because we have something that money can’t buy and no one can take away from us. 24. What caused the family’s problem? A. Overspending on daily needs. B. The husband’s unemployment. C. High costs of raising children. D. A sudden rise in house prices. 25. How did the husband feel about their situation? A. Guilty. B. Confused. C. Hopeful. D. Annoyed. 26. What does the underlined phrase “meant business” in paragraph 6 mean? A. Told a lie. B. Removed a doubt. C. Took it seriously. D. Lived with it. 27. Why does the author consider her family well-off? A. They’ve regained financial stability. B. They’ve preserved belongings. C. They’ve strengthened family bonds. D. They’ve resolved mental conflicts. C The European wood bison population has grown so much as to no longer be considered "Vulnerable" according to the global authority on conservation,the International Union for Conservation of Nature(IUCN),in their latest Red List update. A century ago,only 50 European bison remained on Earth,and they were mostly restricted to nature reserves. “The conservation successes provide living proof that the world can set,and meet, ambitious biodiversity targets,” said Dr. Jane Smart,Global Director of IUCN' s Biodiversity Conservation Group in a statement. Eight of the 47 bison herds have special genes for long-term survival, so scientists need to move animals in and out of herds in order to make healthy genes continue. Establishing greater numbers of separate herds will also help prevent possible losses due to things like diseases or natural disasters. This led to the creation of a project called “Wilder Blean" where Blean Woods in Kent, England,will receive Dutch and Polish bison to create the first wild herd on the island for 6,000 years. English conservationists and wildlife managers are interested in the effects bison have on the landscape. As large grass-eating animals, the constant foraging, digging and breaking they do on the forest floor have been assumed to have positive effects on the ecosystem. Bison kill weak or dead trees by eating their bark or rubbing against them to remove their thick winter fur. This turns the tree into food and habitat for insects, which in turn provide food for birds. In this way they act like forestry experts, and the Kent Wildlife Trust hopes that this significant species will maintain declining populations of plants, birds, insects, and mammals by way of their unique habits. 28. What has made the European wood bison grow in large numbers? A. Being restricted to nature reserves. B. Being updated on the latest Red List. C. Being kept under effective conservation. D. Being born with long-term survival genes. 29. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. Providing living proof. B. Preventing natural disasters. C. Establishing nature reserves. D. Setting up more separate herds. 30. What is the attitude of Kent Wildlife Trust towards the project “Wilder Blean”？ A. Supportive. B. Conservative. C. Skeptical. D. Objective. 31. What is the purpose of this text? A. To introduce the various actions of European wood bison. B. To highlight the importance of setting and meeting targets. C. To report the conservation successes for European wood bison. D. To praise Dr. Jane Smart for his contributions to conservation. D Artificial intelligence (AI) models have long surpassed (超过) just creating text responses and images. Now, with only one sentence, OpenAI’s latest text-to-video model, Sora, can turn your words into video with good visual quality while faithfully following your content instructions. Sora is said to outperform many other existing models with similar functions. The AI model can create videos at suitable aspect ratios (屏幕高宽比) for different devices, such as both widescreen videos and vertical (竖的) videos that we usually see on social media. This allows it to offer diverse products. It also lets users quickly test out content in lower quality before making the high-quality version, which helps speed up output. Aside from this, its ability to present videos in a realistic and smooth manner is astonishing. Sora can create detailed scenes with several characters, specific types of motion, and accurate subject and background details while generating multiple shots within a single video. Beyond the user’s requests, it also understands how these elements exist in the real world. For example, reflections in the water change as a woman walks by a lake. Sora’s amazing performance wouldn’t be possible without its helpful assistant, ChatGPT, which transforms simple sentences into detailed descriptions, improving the accuracy of output according to the user’s prompts (提示语). However, the current model isn’t perfect. It may have trouble accurately showing how things move in a complicated scene and might not get how one action leads to another. For example, if someone eats part of a cookie in a Sora-made video, the cookie might not look like it’s been bitten into. The model might mix up directions like left and right, and find it hard to describe events in the right order. One possible reason is that Sora learns each basic unit of a video, known as a spacetime patch (时空补丁), independently, according to an online post by the Institute of Physics, the Chinese Academy of Sciences. As of February, Sora is still in the testing stage of development. OpenAI is now inviting cybersecurity professionals to make random attacks on Sora’s system, aiming to test the model’s possible weaknesses and risks. Sora has also been open to some visual artists, designers and filmmakers. Their feedback will assist OpenAI in enhancing the model to better serve creative professionals. 32. What is the main focus of paragraphs 2-3? A. Sora’s evolution. B. Sora’s diversity. C. Sora’s strengths. D. Sora’s techniques. 33. How does ChatGPT contribute to Sora’s capabilities? A. By specifying user input. B. By providing verbal feedback. C. By analyzing sample videos. D. By enhancing video quality. 34. Why does the author provide the example in paragraph 5? A. To highlight Sora’s potential safety risks. B. To illustrate Sora’s existing limitations. C. To showcase Sora’s flawless performance. D. To explain the concept of a spacetime patch. 35. What can we know about Sora up to now? A. It has been made available to various industries. B. Its commercial release has been called off. C. It has exposed alarming security issues. D. It is undergoing testing and improvement. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） Are you as good at things as you think you are? While knowing how competent one is helps make important decisions, research suggests that people are not very good at evaluating themselves accurately. ____36____ Researchers have a term for this phenomenon, the Dunning-Kruger effect. ____37____ They judge themselves as better than others to a degree that violates the laws of math. When software engineers were asked to rate their performance, 42% put themselves in the top 5%. This is not an isolated finding. On average, people tend to rate themselves better than most in health, leadership skills, and beyond. What’s particularly interesting is that those with the least ability often overrate their skills to the greatest extent. ____38____ When psychologists Dunning and Kruger first described the effect in 1999, they argued that poor performers lack the very expertise needed to recognize how badly they’re doing. The Dunning-Kruger effect isn’t a question of ego (自尊) blinding us to our weaknesses. People usually do admit their deficits once they can spot them. That may be why people with a medium amount of expertise often have less confidence in their abilities. ____39____ Meanwhile, experts tend to be aware of just how knowledgeable they are. But they often assume that everyone else is knowledgeable, too. ____40____ When they’re unskilled, they can’t see their own faults. When they’re exceptionally competent, they don’t perceive how unusual their abilities are. So what can we do? First, ask for feedback from other people, even if it’s hard to hear. Second, keep learning. The more knowledgeable we become, the less likely we are to have invisible holes in our competence. A. But why? B. Do people know how badly they are doing? C. People in various fields tend to be overconfident. D. In fact, they frequently overestimate their own abilities. E. They know enough to know that there’s a lot they don’t know. F. The result is, one way or another, people are caught in an inaccurate self-perception. G. This effect explains why over 100 studies show people display imaginary superiority. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） Born in the small Swiss city of La Chaux-de-Fonds, Le Corbusier is widely regarded as the most ____41____ architect of the 20th century.

She was a big dog on the Perkinses’ family farm, a woolly creature with floppy ears and paws like bedroom slippers. She protected the ducks and chickens from being eaten by foxes and raccoons (浣熊) . She guarded the children as well, watching over them as closely as she did the chickens and ducks. In winter the dog ran alongside the children as they sledded (滑雪橇) down snowy hills. In summer she swam with them in a nearby river. Bear belonged to a breed (品种) that had long been used by Atlantic fishermen to help with their work, and it had a keen instinct for water rescue. When the children were in the river, the dog would swim in circles around them, barking when she felt they went out too far. She was the perfect farm dog — companion, guardian, protector. The dog’s favorite among the three children was three-year-old little Mike. They often curled up together. Sometimes Bear would doze while Mike pretended to read to her. Often both were sound asleep, a tangle of dark fur, blond hair, small hands and huge paws. At bedtime, Mike saved his last hug for Bear, his “best friend”. On a cold winter day, when their parents went out to send a parcel, eight-year-old Martha, seven-year-old Sara and Mike, went to slide on the frozen pond of their farm. Shouting happily, they slid back and forth, their boots gliding easily across the ice. They laughed as they watched Bear’s attempts to stop suddenly, which would instead send her skidding beyond them. Then, tired, the three sat down on the ice, with Bear beside them. Suddenly the ice gave way under their combined weight. As Bear jumped for shore, the three children fell into the freezing cold water. Screaming, Martha and Sarah struggled to find footing on rocks underwater. Branches from a tree nearby provided handholds, and using every bit of their strength, the two girls pulled themselves to shore. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Looking back, they saw little Mike holding on to a broken chunk (大块) of ice, unable to crawl onto it. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Seeing that, Bear let out a series of woofs and jumped into the water, heading straight for Mike. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力测试正式开始。第一节听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话仅读一遍。Oh, no, the car won't start again.

My name is Grace Collins, and i'm excited to share my experiences with you tonight. For the past ten years, i've worked to protect and restore natural ecosystems, particularly in a small island nation in the pacific. One of my proud projects was creating a community program where local Fishermen could work together to monitor and protect the environment. These partnerships have shown me that successful conservation isn't just about using the latest tools or technologies, it's about building trust, respecting local traditions and finding ways to solve problems.

Yet for disabled, elderly, low-income individuals, or those without a smartphone or credit card, these services are practically out of reach. Such services tend to gather in wealthy urban areas, leaving users largely young, wealthy, and able-bodied. Shared mobility could be a key part of a more sustainable transportation system. But to be most effective, it needs to include everyone. For-profit shared mobility providers have largely failed to deliver on this, but various initiatives and projects are finding creative solutions to reach under-served communities. ●Buffalo’s E-Bike Library: Organizes training, group rides and educational events to familiarize people with cycling culture and safety, with 71% of members being first-time riders. ●Mobitwin’s car-share service: Prioritizes email-and phone-based bookings over apps to extend reach to a wider share of the population lacking digital literacy, helping them access the service more easily. ● U. S. bike-sharing policy: Provides fare reductions for low-income groups, with cash payment options and non-smartphone access as key measures to broaden adoption, which has shown promise in increasing the use of shared bikes while decreasing the use of personal vehicles. ●Graz’s car-share initiatives: Add wheelchair-accessible vehicles, child seats, and station-based booking to suit diverse users’ trip-chaining needs, such as mid-route pickups and multi-destination trips. The future of shared mobility relies on making inclusive design a top priority. As Esen Köse, project manager at Mpact, puts it, “It’s about starting with people’s needs.” 21. What is the percentage gap between lower and higher income users in Barrier 1? A. 3%. B. 16%. C. 26%. D. 71%. 22. Which solution targets Barrier 2? A. Buffalo’s E-Bike Library. B. Graz’s car-share initiatives. C. U. S. bike-sharing policy. D. Mobitwin’s car-share service. 23. What will shape the future of shared mobility according to Esen Köse? A. Tech-based priority. B. Charity-run initiatives. C. Profit-driven providers. D. User-centered accessibility. 【答案】21. B 22. C 23. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文，文章主要讲述共享单车存在的问题以及解决方法。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据图表Barrier 1部分信息可知，Higher income的比例是26%，Lower income的比例是42%，差距是16%，故选B。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据图表信息可知，Barrier 2“High cost of the system (系统成本高)”是关于共享系统的高成本，再结合“U. S. bike-sharing policy: Provides fare reductions for low-income groups, with cash payment options and non-smartphone access as key measures to broaden adoption, which has shown promise in increasing the use of shared bikes while decreasing the use of personal vehicles. (美国共享单车政策：为低收入群体提供车费减免，以现金支付方式和非智能手机接入作为扩大采用的关键措施，这在增加共享单车的使用同时减少个人车辆的使用方面显示出了希望。)”可知，美国共享单车政策旨在降低共享单车的成本，故选C。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The future of shared mobility relies on making inclusive design a top priority. As Esen Köse, project manager at Mpact, puts it, ‘It’s about starting with people’s needs.’ (共享出行的未来取决于将包容性设计作为重中之重。正如Mpact的项目经理Esen Köse所说，‘这是从人们的需求开始的。’)”可知，Esen Köse认为共享出行的未来将由以用户为中心的可使用性来塑造，故选D。 B We thought we had everything we could ask for—a lovely home, three healthy kids, two vehicles—and we cherished it all. We spent money as if it would never run out. But then the market took a downturn, and my husband lost his job at the construction firm. The company filed for failure and shut its doors permanently. We both began searching for jobs immediately, yet there were none available. As each day went by, our anxiety grew, but we kept working as a team to get our family through the tough time. The more we joined forces, the stronger our bond became. Watching my husband take the blame for our current dilemma was truly painful. I knew full well he couldn’t control the economy, but he kept putting himself down—each bitter word he said dragged his spirits further down. I kept telling him to quit it, yet he appeared determined to punish himself for being jobless. At last, one afternoon I pulled him aside and said, “We have healthy children and each other. That’s what matters. That makes you a rich man.” “But what if we lose the house? They’ll hate me—you'll hate me,” he replied. “If we live in a cardboard box on the empty lot across the street, I will be happy—as long as I have you.” I wasn’t just saying it. I meant business. I could see the sense of relief spread over him as his shoulders and neck loosened, and the tightness drained from his body. He pulled me close, and for the first time in a long while, we were able to talk, make plans, and share dreams together. It marked a pivotal moment for both of us as a couple and our family. We are still struggling financially, but I count us fortunate because we have something that money can’t buy and no one can take away from us. 24. What caused the family’s problem? A. Overspending on daily needs. B. The husband’s unemployment. C. High costs of raising children. D. A sudden rise in house prices. 25. How did the husband feel about their situation? A. Guilty. B. Confused. C. Hopeful. D. Annoyed. 26. What does the underlined phrase “meant business” in paragraph 6 mean? A. Told a lie. B. Removed a doubt. C. Took it seriously. D. Lived with it. 27. Why does the author consider her family well-off? A. They’ve regained financial stability. B. They’ve preserved belongings. C. They’ve strengthened family bonds. D. They’ve resolved mental conflicts. 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，文章讲述了作者一家原本生活富足，但因经济下滑丈夫失业，家庭陷入困境。然而，夫妻二人相互扶持，共同面对困难，最终让家庭关系更加紧密，作者认为家庭真正的富足在于拥有无法用金钱购买、无人能夺走的东西。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“But then the market took a downturn, and my husband lost his job at the construction firm.(但后来市场下滑，我丈夫在建筑公司丢了工作)”可知，丈夫失业导致了家庭出现问题。故选B项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Watching my husband take the blame for our current dilemma was truly painful. I knew full well he couldn’t control the economy, but he kept putting himself down—each bitter word he said dragged his spirits further down.(看着丈夫为我们目前的困境自责，我真的很痛苦。我很清楚他无法控制经济，但他一直在贬低自己——他说的每一句刻薄的话都让他的情绪更加低落)”可知，作者的丈夫一直在贬低自己——他说的每一句刻薄的话都让他的情绪更加低落，可推理出丈夫对家庭目前的状况感到内疚。故选A项。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第六段中“I wasn’t just saying it. I …. I could see the sense of relief spread over him as his shoulders and neck loosened, and the tightness drained from his body.(我不仅仅是说说而已。我……。我可以看到他放松下来，肩膀和脖子松弛了，身体的紧张感也消失了)”可知，划线词上文说的是作者不仅仅是说说而已，下文说的是作者看到丈夫放松下来，可推理出作者不仅仅是说说而已，而是认真的，所以“meant business”意思是“认真对待”。故选C项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“As each day went by, our anxiety grew, but we kept working as a team to get our family through the tough time. The more we joined forces, the stronger our bond became.(随着时间的推移，我们的焦虑与日俱增，但我们作为一个团队努力让我们的家庭度过难关。我们越是齐心协力，我们的纽带就越牢固)”以及最后一段“We are still struggling financially, but I count us fortunate because we have something that money can’t buy and no one can take away from us.(我们仍然在经济上挣扎，但我认为我们很幸运，因为我们拥有一些金钱买不到、无人能夺走的东西)”可知，作者一家的焦虑与日俱增，但夫妻二人共同努力让一家人度过难关。大家越是齐心协力，他们之间的纽带就越牢固，作者认为一家人很幸运，因为拥有一些金钱买不到、无人能夺走的东西，可推理出作者认为家庭真正的富足在于家庭关系的紧密，即他们加强了家庭纽带。故选C项。 C The European wood bison population has grown so much as to no longer be considered "Vulnerable" according to the global authority on conservation,the International Union for Conservation of Nature(IUCN),in their latest Red List update. A century ago,only 50 European bison remained on Earth,and they were mostly restricted to nature reserves. “The conservation successes provide living proof that the world can set,and meet, ambitious biodiversity targets,” said Dr. Jane Smart,Global Director of IUCN' s Biodiversity Conservation Group in a statement. Eight of the 47 bison herds have special genes for long-term survival, so scientists need to move animals in and out of herds in order to make healthy genes continue. Establishing greater numbers of separate herds will also help prevent possible losses due to things like diseases or natural disasters. This led to the creation of a project called “Wilder Blean" where Blean Woods in Kent, England,will receive Dutch and Polish bison to create the first wild herd on the island for 6,000 years. English conservationists and wildlife managers are interested in the effects bison have on the landscape. As large grass-eating animals, the constant foraging, digging and breaking they do on the forest floor have been assumed to have positive effects on the ecosystem. Bison kill weak or dead trees by eating their bark or rubbing against them to remove their thick winter fur. This turns the tree into food and habitat for insects, which in turn provide food for birds. In this way they act like forestry experts, and the Kent Wildlife Trust hopes that this significant species will maintain declining populations of plants, birds, insects, and mammals by way of their unique habits. 28. What has made the European wood bison grow in large numbers? A. Being restricted to nature reserves. B. Being updated on the latest Red List. C. Being kept under effective conservation. D. Being born with long-term survival genes. 29. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. Providing living proof. B. Preventing natural disasters. C. Establishing nature reserves. D. Setting up more separate herds. 30. What is the attitude of Kent Wildlife Trust towards the project “Wilder Blean”？ A. Supportive. B. Conservative. C. Skeptical. D. Objective. 31. What is the purpose of this text? A. To introduce the various actions of European wood bison. B. To highlight the importance of setting and meeting targets. C. To report the conservation successes for European wood bison. D. To praise Dr. Jane Smart for his contributions to conservation. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. C 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。国际自然保护联盟在其最新的红色名单更新中表示，欧洲森林野牛的数量有了巨大增长。文章介绍了人们和相关组织为了保护森林野牛所付出的努力，以及野牛的一些习性。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段““The conservation successes provide living proof that the world can set, and meet, ambitious biodiversity targets,” said Dr. Jane Smart, Global Director of IUCN' s Biodiversity Conservation Group in a statement. (世界自然保护联盟生物多样性保护小组全球主任Jane Smart博士在一份声明中说：“保护的成功提供了生动的证据，证明世界可以设定并实现雄心勃勃的生物多样性目标。”)”可知，被有效地保护使得森林野牛的数量大量增多。故选C。 【29题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第四段中“Establishing greater numbers of separate herds will also help prevent possible losses due to things like diseases or natural disasters.(建立更多数量的独立野牛群也有助于防止由于疾病或自然灾害等原因可能造成的损失)”以及画线词后文“led to the creation of a project called “Wilder Blean"”可知，建立更多独立的野牛群促使了一个叫做“野生布林”的项目的产生。即画线词指的是“建立更多独立的野牛群”。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第四段“This led to the creation of a project called “Wilder Blean" where Blean Woods in Kent, England, will receive Dutch and Polish bison to create the first wild herd on the island for 6,000 years.(这导致了一个叫做“Wilder Blean”的项目的产生，在英格兰肯特的布林森林，将接收荷兰和波兰野牛，创造岛上6000年来的第一个野生牛群)”以及最后一段“In this way they act like forestry experts, and the Kent Wildlife Trust hopes that this significant species will maintain declining populations of plants, birds, insects, and mammals by way of their unique habits.(在这种情况下，它们就像林业专家一样，肯特野生动物基金会希望，这个重要的物种能够通过其独特的习性，维持不断下降的植物、鸟类、昆虫和哺乳动物的数量)”可推知，Wilder Blean是为了创建野生牛群来保持牛群的数量，故肯特野生动物基金会对“Wilder Blean”计划持支持态度。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The European wood bison population has grown so much as to no longer be considered "Vulnerable" according to the global authority on conservation, the International Union for Conservation of Nature(IUCN), in their latest Red List update.(国际自然保护联盟在其最新的红色名单更新中表示，欧洲森林野牛的数量增长如此之快，以至于不再被认为“脆弱”)”结合文章介绍了人们和相关组织为了保护森林野牛所付出的努力，以及野牛的一些习性。可推知，这篇文章的目的是报告欧洲森林野牛保护取得成功。故选C。 D Artificial intelligence (AI) models have long surpassed (超过) just creating text responses and images. Now, with only one sentence, OpenAI’s latest text-to-video model, Sora, can turn your words into video with good visual quality while faithfully following your content instructions. Sora is said to outperform many other existing models with similar functions. The AI model can create videos at suitable aspect ratios (屏幕高宽比) for different devices, such as both widescreen videos and vertical (竖的) videos that we usually see on social media. This allows it to offer diverse products. It also lets users quickly test out content in lower quality before making the high-quality version, which helps speed up output. Aside from this, its ability to present videos in a realistic and smooth manner is astonishing. Sora can create detailed scenes with several characters, specific types of motion, and accurate subject and background details while generating multiple shots within a single video. Beyond the user’s requests, it also understands how these elements exist in the real world. For example, reflections in the water change as a woman walks by a lake. Sora’s amazing performance wouldn’t be possible without its helpful assistant, ChatGPT, which transforms simple sentences into detailed descriptions, improving the accuracy of output according to the user’s prompts (提示语). However, the current model isn’t perfect. It may have trouble accurately showing how things move in a complicated scene and might not get how one action leads to another. For example, if someone eats part of a cookie in a Sora-made video, the cookie might not look like it’s been bitten into. The model might mix up directions like left and right, and find it hard to describe events in the right order. One possible reason is that Sora learns each basic unit of a video, known as a spacetime patch (时空补丁), independently, according to an online post by the Institute of Physics, the Chinese Academy of Sciences. As of February, Sora is still in the testing stage of development. OpenAI is now inviting cybersecurity professionals to make random attacks on Sora’s system, aiming to test the model’s possible weaknesses and risks. Sora has also been open to some visual artists, designers and filmmakers. Their feedback will assist OpenAI in enhancing the model to better serve creative professionals. 32. What is the main focus of paragraphs 2-3? A. Sora’s evolution. B. Sora’s diversity. C. Sora’s strengths. D. Sora’s techniques. 33. How does ChatGPT contribute to Sora’s capabilities? A. By specifying user input. B. By providing verbal feedback. C. By analyzing sample videos. D. By enhancing video quality. 34. Why does the author provide the example in paragraph 5? A. To highlight Sora’s potential safety risks. B. To illustrate Sora’s existing limitations. C. To showcase Sora’s flawless performance. D. To explain the concept of a spacetime patch. 35. What can we know about Sora up to now? A. It has been made available to various industries. B. Its commercial release has been called off. C. It has exposed alarming security issues. D. It is undergoing testing and improvement. 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了OpenAI最新推出的文本转视频模型Sora，包括其功能特点、技术优势、存在的问题以及目前的开发测试阶段等相关信息。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Sora is said to outperform many other existing models with similar functions .(据说，Sora的表现优于许多其他现有同类功能的模型。)”以及第三段“Aside from this, its ability to present videos in a realistic and smooth manner is astonishing. (除此之外，它以真实流畅的方式呈现视频的能力也令人惊叹。)”以及这两段的主要内容可知，这两段都是围绕Sora的优点展开。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Sora’s amazing performance wouldn’t be possible without its helpful assistant, ChatGPT, which transforms simple sentences into detailed descriptions, improving the accuracy of output according to the user’s prompts (提示语). (Sora的出色表现离不开其得力助手ChatGPT的支持，ChatGPT能将简单的句子转化为详细的描述，根据用户的提示语提高输出的准确性。)”可知，ChatGPT的作用是将用户的简单输入具体化、详细化，从而帮助Sora更精准地生成内容，即明确用户输入。故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段内容“However, the current model isn’t perfect. It may have trouble accurately showing how things move in a complicated scene and might not get how one action leads to another. For example, if someone eats part of a cookie in a Sora-made video, the cookie might not look like it’s been bitten into. (然而，当前这个模型并非完美无缺。它在准确呈现复杂场景中物体的运动方式时可能存在困难，也可能无法理解一个动作如何引发另一个动作。比如，在 Sora生成的视频中，如果有人咬了一口饼干，饼干可能看起来并没有被咬过的痕迹。)”可知，这个例子是为了具体说明前文提到的Sora的不足，即它在呈现动作连贯性和因果关系上的缺陷，也就是其现有的局限性。故选B。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“As of February, Sora is still in the testing stage of development. OpenAI is now inviting cybersecurity professionals to make random attacks on Sora’s system, aiming to test the model’s possible weaknesses and risks. Sora has also been open to some visual artists, designers and filmmakers. Their feedback will assist OpenAI in enhancing the model to better serve creative professionals. (截至2月，Sora仍处于开发测试阶段。OpenAI目前正邀请网络安全专家对Sora系统进行随机攻击，旨在测试该模型可能存在的弱点和风险。Sora也向一些视觉艺术家、设计师和电影制作人开放，他们的反馈将帮助OpenAI改进模型，使其能更好地为创意从业者服务。)”可知，Sora目前正在接受测试（网络安全测试、收集专业人士反馈）并持续改进。故选D。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） Are you as good at things as you think you are? While knowing how competent one is helps make important decisions, research suggests that people are not very good at evaluating themselves accurately. ____36____ Researchers have a term for this phenomenon, the Dunning-Kruger effect. ____37____ They judge themselves as better than others to a degree that violates the laws of math. When software engineers were asked to rate their performance, 42% put themselves in the top 5%. This is not an isolated finding. On average, people tend to rate themselves better than most in health, leadership skills, and beyond. What’s particularly interesting is that those with the least ability often overrate their skills to the greatest extent. ____38____ When psychologists Dunning and Kruger first described the effect in 1999, they argued that poor performers lack the very expertise needed to recognize how badly they’re doing. The Dunning-Kruger effect isn’t a question of ego (自尊) blinding us to our weaknesses. People usually do admit their deficits once they can spot them. That may be why people with a medium amount of expertise often have less confidence in their abilities. ____39____ Meanwhile, experts tend to be aware of just how knowledgeable they are. But they often assume that everyone else is knowledgeable, too. ____40____ When they’re unskilled, they can’t see their own faults. When they’re exceptionally competent, they don’t perceive how unusual their abilities are. So what can we do? First, ask for feedback from other people, even if it’s hard to hear. Second, keep learning. The more knowledgeable we become, the less likely we are to have invisible holes in our competence. A. But why? B. Do people know how badly they are doing? C. People in various fields tend to be overconfident. D. In fact, they frequently overestimate their own abilities. E. They know enough to know that there’s a lot they don’t know. F.

A 39. E 40. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了邓宁—克鲁格效应，包括该效应的表现、原因以及解决方法。 【36题详解】 根据上文“While knowing how competent one is helps make important decisions, research suggests that people are not very good at evaluating themselves accurately. (虽然了解自己的能力有助于做出重要决策，但研究表明，人们并不擅长准确地评价自己)”以及下文“Researchers have a term for this phenomenon, the Dunning-Kruger effect. (研究人员为这种现象起了一个术语 ——邓宁—克鲁格效应)”可知，上文指出人们并不擅长准确评估自己，下文则指出这种现象的定义，D选项“In fact, they frequently overestimate their own abilities. (事实上，他们经常高估自己的能力)”承接上文的研究结论，是对“无法准确评估自己”的具体补充，说明“不准确评估”的常见表现是“高估能力”，同时为下文引出“邓宁—克鲁格效应”做铺垫，逻辑连贯。故选D项。 【37题详解】 根据下文“They judge themselves as better than others to a degree that violates the laws of math. When software engineers were asked to rate their performance, 42% put themselves in the top 5%. This is not an isolated finding. On average, people tend to rate themselves better than most in health, leadership skills, and beyond. (他们认为自己比别人优秀，程度甚至违背了数学规律。当软件工程师被要求对自己的表现打分时，42%的人认为自己处于前5%。这并非孤立的发现。平均而言，人们在健康、领导能力等诸多方面，往往会认为自己比大多数人更优秀)”可知，下文指出调查研究表明各个领域的人往往高估自己的能力，认为自己比别人好，G 选项“This effect explains why over 100 studies show people display imaginary superiority. (这种效应解释了为什么超过100项研究表明人们会表现出假想的优越性)”中的“This effect”指代上文的“Dunning-Kruger effect”，“imaginary superiority (假想的优越性)”与下文“judge themselves as better than others”“rate themselves better than most”直接呼应，起到统领段落的作用，解释了邓宁—克鲁格效应的具体表现，即人们表现出假想的优越性。故选G项。 【38题详解】 根据上文“What’s particularly interesting is that those with the least ability often overrate their skills to the greatest extent. (特别有趣的是，能力最弱的人往往最容易高估自己的技能)”以及下文“When psychologists Dunning and Kruger first described the effect in 1999, they argued that poor performers lack the very expertise needed to recognize how badly they’re doing. (当心理学家邓宁和克鲁格在1999年首次描述这种效应时，他们认为表现不佳者缺乏认识到自己表现有多差所需的专业知识)”可知，上文指出“能力最弱的人往往最容易高估自己的技能”这种现象，下文则说明了这种现象的原因，A选项“But why? (但是为什么呢？)”以设问的方式引出下文对“能力弱的人高估自己”这一现象的原因解释，起到承上启下的过渡作用，符合“现象—疑问—原因”的逻辑结构。故选A项。 【39题详解】 根据上文“The Dunning-Kruger effect isn’t a question of ego (自尊) blinding us to our weaknesses. People usually do admit their deficits once they can spot them. That may be why people with a medium amount of expertise often have less confidence in their abilities. (邓宁—克鲁格效应并非是自尊蒙蔽了我们对自身弱点的认知。人们通常一旦能发现自己的不足，就会承认这些缺陷。这可能就是为什么拥有中等专业知识水平的人往往对自己的能力信心不足)”可知，上文指出拥有中等专业知识的人往往对自己的能力缺乏信心，E选项“They know enough to know that there’s a lot they don’t know. (他们知道的足够多，以至于明白自己还有很多不知道的东西)”是对“中等专业知识者信心不足”的原因进一步解释，“They”指代“people with a medium amount of expertise”，“know enough to know that there’s a lot they don’t know”说明中等水平者因认知到自身知识局限而信心不足，与上文逻辑一致，补充完整因果关系。故选E项。 【40题详解】 根据上文“Meanwhile, experts tend to be aware of just how knowledgeable they are. But they often assume that everyone else is knowledgeable, too. (与此同时，专家往往清楚自己有多博学。但他们通常也认为其他人同样博学)”以及下文“When they’re unskilled, they can’t see their own faults. When they’re exceptionally competent, they don’t perceive how unusual their abilities are. (当他们不熟练时，看不到自己的缺点；当他们能力极强时，意识不到自己的能力有多罕见)”可知，上文指出专家往往低估自己的能力，下文则对各类人群的情况进行了总结性说明，F选项“The result is, one way or another, people are caught in an inaccurate self-perception. (结果就是，无论如何，人们都陷入了不准确的自我认知中)”是对上文“能力弱的人高估、中等水平者信心不足、专家低估自身能力独特性”等现象的总结，“inaccurate self-perception”概括了各类人群的共同问题，同时与下文对不同能力者认知特点的总结相呼应，起到总结前文、衔接下文的作用。故选F项。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） Born in the small Swiss city of La Chaux-de-Fonds, Le Corbusier is widely regarded as the most ____41____ architect of the 20th century.

She was a big dog on the Perkinses’ family farm, a woolly creature with floppy ears and paws like bedroom slippers. She protected the ducks and chickens from being eaten by foxes and raccoons (浣熊) . She guarded the children as well, watching over them as closely as she did the chickens and ducks. In winter the dog ran alongside the children as they sledded (滑雪橇) down snowy hills. In summer she swam with them in a nearby river. Bear belonged to a breed (品种) that had long been used by Atlantic fishermen to help with their work, and it had a keen instinct for water rescue. When the children were in the river, the dog would swim in circles around them, barking when she felt they went out too far. She was the perfect farm dog — companion, guardian, protector. The dog’s favorite among the three children was three-year-old little Mike. They often curled up together. Sometimes Bear would doze while Mike pretended to read to her. Often both were sound asleep, a tangle of dark fur, blond hair, small hands and huge paws. At bedtime, Mike saved his last hug for Bear, his “best friend”. On a cold winter day, when their parents went out to send a parcel, eight-year-old Martha, seven-year-old Sara and Mike, went to slide on the frozen pond of their farm. Shouting happily, they slid back and forth, their boots gliding easily across the ice. They laughed as they watched Bear’s attempts to stop suddenly, which would instead send her skidding beyond them. Then, tired, the three sat down on the ice, with Bear beside them. Suddenly the ice gave way under their combined weight. As Bear jumped for shore, the three children fell into the freezing cold water. Screaming, Martha and Sarah struggled to find footing on rocks underwater. Branches from a tree nearby provided handholds, and using every bit of their strength, the two girls pulled themselves to shore. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Looking back, they saw little Mike holding on to a broken chunk (大块) of ice, unable to crawl onto it. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Seeing that, Bear let out a series of woofs and jumped into the water, heading straight for Mike. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Looking back, they saw little Mike holding on to a broken chunk of ice, unable to crawl onto it. Panic slammed into Martha and Sara like a hammer; their breaths came in harsh clouds as the wind howled across the pond. “Mike, keep your arms up — don’t let go!” Martha shouted, her voice cracking with fear. The boy’s lips were turning a frightening shade of blue, and water sloshed over his boots each time the ice tilted. The sisters clung to a low branch, but the thought of re-entering the frigid hole was unbearable. With no adults in sight and daylight fading, the brittle silence of the farm suddenly felt enormous. Seeing that, Bear let out a series of woofs and jumped into the water, heading straight for Mike. Powerful strokes sliced the surface as spray flew from her coat. When she reached him, she circled once, nudging his armpit with her nose until Mike’s arms slid over her broad shoulders. Instinct took over. Gripping his jacket between her teeth, she turned toward shore and began towing her passenger. Martha and Sara lay flat on the ice, stretching a long branch. The moment Bear’s paws scraped frozen ground, the girls hauled the boy and the dog together, collapsing in a trembling heap of relief. 【解析】 【导语】本文以小狗Bear为线索展开，讲述了它保护着鸭子、鸡和孩子们。在一个寒冷冬日，三个孩子在农场池塘滑冰时冰面破裂，Martha和Sara上岸后发现Mike被困在冰上。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“回头看，他们看到小Mike紧紧抓住一块破碎的冰，无法爬上去。”可知，第一段可描写Martha和Sara的惊慌失措以及Mike的危险处境，同时强调当时的寒冷和无助。 ②由第二段首句内容“看到这一幕，Bear发出一连串的叫声，跳进水里，径直向Mike游去。”可知，第二段可描写Bear如何成功营救Mike，以及Martha和Sara在岸边的协助，最后大家都松了一口气。 2. 续写线索：冰面破裂——Mike被困——Bear营救——成功上岸 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①大喊：shout/yell ②紧紧抓住：cling to/grasp/hold fast to ③到达：reach/get to 情绪类 ①惊慌：panic/fright/terror ②恐惧：fear/terror/alarm 【点睛】【高分句型1】Panic slammed into Martha and Sara like a hammer; their breaths came in harsh clouds as the wind howled across the pond. (运用了比喻修辞和从属连词as引导时间状语从句) 【高分句型2】When she reached him, she circled once, nudging his armpit with her nose until Mike’s arms slid over her broad shoulders.
